QT: Against My Will

112 3.04.17 – The Sniper – Downfall of Humanity

Yi Zen led his team of twelve towards the abandoned factory, which was close to the end of the secret tunnel. When out of nowhere, a bullet passed before him.

“A sniper!” Yi Zen warned other members. Throwing out a smoke grenade, they ran inside the factory, where about twenty hidden gang members waited for their arrival. With automatic weapons, thousands of rounds of ammunition were fired at the same time.

When the firing ceased, each gang member started to laugh, “That was too easy!”

Comprehending the situation, the bloodstained Yi Zen glanced at his dead underlings for the last time. Without remorse, they became his meat shield, voluntarily. A few bullets found their way to his legs, making him unable to move. Holding onto the rifle, remembering each person’s position, he was about to take everyone down. He stopped his action when he saw how the gang members were killed by a mysterious person.

The tight black suit couldn’t hide her perfect curves. Moving like a nimble cat, she sliced down their throats skillfully. When the last man dropped down, she came to a halt, and turned her eyes toward a still-living soldier, first at the badge showing his rank, then at his face.

While their eyes were locked, in steady steps, she took out a small glass flask from her waist belt. Crouching before him, she marveled at the attractive man. Taking hold of her emotions, she wiped down her invisible saliva. Pinching his chin, she fed him the water from the healing pond.

As if under the spell, Yi Zen gulped down whatever she fed him. Not able to pull his gaze away, he started at the alluring, yet dangerous woman. The white skin as flawless as a polished diamond, shining throughout the night, it blinded his heart.

Fu Lian, having such a handsome man staring at her, couldn’t help but blush. The slight pink color on her cheeks enhanced her beauty by several times.

Never did Yi Zen reacted to women. No matter how beautiful they were, he didn’t care. But this extraordinary woman was different. “Who...” Before he could finish his question, he fell asleep. The healing water was doing its magic, it healed his tissues, not leaving a scar behind.

.....

While waiting for Yi Zen’s rescue, Fu Lian ogled out his features. When she heard military men nearing her area, she dived inside her space.

An invisible, little white snake floated in the factory. It transmitted the whole thing to its host, who was pretty chill seeing the gory sight. Bing Shi got used to Fu Lian’s savage way of resolving her grudges.

Bing Shi, who would usually eat popcorn during a situation like this, passed this time as it was an important first meeting between the leads.

‘Hello? What’s with all these loving stares? Did your beauty erode your sense of smell?’

‘There are dead bodies everywhere; shouldn’t it smell like death?’

While lamenting in her head, she asked Kuro to zoom in on Yi Zen’s face.

‘What the...’

If she didn’t study his face for a year, she wouldn’t be able to tell the difference. Bing Shi spotted a tint of nervousness. Was it due to the injury, Fu Lian, or something else?

Meanwhile...

The chase after Ma Jie continued. In the previous life, he was never caught.

This lifetime...

Ren Han, with his teammates, drove to his apartment stealthily. Turning on his computer, he hacked all the devices contaminated by a virus, which he used in his previous life to steal private information. Localizing the ones, suspected to be Ma Jien’s allies, they went through the recordings and found out his location.

Just like that...

On the way to catch Ma Jie, while laughing, his teammates stared at Ren Han in worship, “Man, you are the second Bing Shi.”

“Don’t mention that, grandma.” Ren Han checked his phone for any new messages. Finding there were none, he turned on the GPS, “What a cunny rat, hiding in a patrolling police car near a factory.”

That awful night shook the world; mainly the city C citizens. To catch one man, many civilians, officers, and soldiers were injured or killed in the process.

At least, Ma Jie was caught.

Bing Shi stroke again. This time, she made a move on authorities.

Inside the group chat room.

Guest54: You can’t do it!

Bing Shi: You refuse to help? Fine. I’ll do it myself.

A new spam message appeared on everyone’s devices every five minutes for three seconds.

——-?????——-

Prepare for the war.

——-?????——-

When one person stopped working, another followed. Bing Shi got to see the power of group paranoia. Anti Bing Shi riots occurred all over the world. As if stricken by chicken blood, all of a sudden, people started to invade supermarkets and weapon stores, in attempt to stock up on food and water. The aggressive ones fought each other for a piece of bread.

It was like a Black Friday sale, but more severe. Those stronger got what they wanted, while those weaker ended in hospital. In mid of utter chaos, there were still many kind people, which helped and protected the weak.

Everyone needed to put the blame on someone, Bing Shi took this enormous burden. After gaining the title public’s enemy number one, she became the most despised person in the world. Her fans became her haters. Knowing that everyone was in denial, she accepted all the hate.

Inside the hotel room, under the blanket, the stressed Bing Shi was trying to calm herself. It was hard to accept that all the bad things in the world were all her doing. Thought her hands were not stained with blood, she felt like a criminal. She was playing with fate, and the unknown future caused fear within her heart.

‘I hope their view will change when the apocalypse occurs.’

‘Mm, that’s what matters the most.’

At the rooftop of the building, sat a man before a rifle, looking through the scope, he watched the show on the main square. People holding peace signs above their heads screamed out loud, trying to pass the message to someone.

Feeling a vibration in his pants pocket, he took out the phone. The person who didn’t respond since the toy box gift incident replied.

Bing Shi: Do you hate me too?

Ren Han: I feel nothing. Is it enough?

Bing Shi: More than enough. Did you like my gift?

Ren Han: Fuck that gift. Grandma, do you want to come over? I’m curious if you grew some wrinkles since the last time I met you.

Bing Shi: Let me spare your innocent eyes of such a dreadful sight. I have a surprise for you. Meet my buddy, Kuro.

Ren Han, ‘Fuck.’

‘Kuro, I choose you ??’

Before Ren Han’s eyes, a little white snake appeared. In reflex he grabbed the gun on his waist and pointed it at Kuro, pulling the trigger, Kuro avoided the bullet and switched into a combat mode. Opening its mouth, the frightening fangs at the upper jaw were ready to attack Ren Han’s face. Before touching Ren Han’s skin, Kuro disappeared.

Bing Shi started to clap in delight.

[“You avoided his bullet! Good job, Kuro. Our training didn’t go to naught!”]

[He is a lot better than you host. He almost got me. ]

[“Huh? But I got you plenty of times.”]

She tried to save her image.

[That’s because you used a speed pill.]

[“Hehe.”]

Her system unintentionally shattered her self-esteem.

Rooted at the spot, Ren Han didn’t notice the goosebumps that covered his arms. Feeling nauseatic, he picked up his phone.

‘Xuan Mu is scared of snakes. No, more like he holds deep hatred towards them. Ziek knew Kuro is going to appear and that he belongs to me. He didn’t scream nor run away, yet he attacked Kuro. I wonder why?’

Bing Shi: Grandson, did I scare you?

Ren Han: Fuck you.

‘Yes, continue being like that. Don’t try to imitate my Xuan Mu.’
